Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct option would be A.

<em>According to the base-pairing rule, Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T) (or Uracil in the case of RNA) while Guanine (G) always pairs with Cytosine (C).</em>

Hence;

A-U

G-C

A-U

C-G

T-A

Therefore, AGAACT would be transcribed to UCUUGA.
